To mark Indiana’s 200th birthday, ISMHS is organizing a major exhibition and related public initiative, Indiana in 200 Objects. The project will identify and showcase 200 objects of particular significance in illuminating Indiana’s natural and cultural history from its geologic origins to the present. Most of the objects selected will be on view at the museum March-December 2016. Many of these will be rare and of easily recognized historical significance, such as the original treaties with Native Americans or the Congressional resolution for statehood. Others may be seemingly ordinary items that attest to major shifts in the Indiana experience or Hoosiers’ impact on the world.
